Veterans are restoring a 1964 Huey helicopter for an exhibit in front of the Vietnam Era Museum and Education Center in Holmdel, N.J. Vietnam veterans as well as veterans of more recent wars pitched in to sand and paint the chopper, which the group hopes to install by the foundation’s annual Vietnam Veterans Remembrance Day on May 7, 2014.

Lots of Army time in Viet Nam as a flying crew chief, over 26 months. Then lots of Air Force hours in Hueys. Wish I lived closer, ND is a long way away, I would love to be part of the project. Keep up the good work guys.
